Abstract

Increase in the need of petroleum products results a remarkable rise in prices. Therefore require to discover alternative cheaper sources for fulfillment of worldwide demand. Here main objective is to develop easier techniques by using cheaper source for the production so that the common people can also produce it by themselves. For this purpose fruit wastes were taken as a substrate for the ethanol production with use of microorganism Saccharomyces cerevisiae also added. The results indicates that the ethanol production rate through fermentation of fruit waste yields is optimal at pH 5.5, temperature 32°C, specific gravity 0.865, conc. of about 6.21%. After distilling the product, higher concentration of ethanol can be obtained. It is a clean and good for the environment because releases no toxic gases, and not harmful to human health too. The waste materials after the fermentation can be used as a soil fertilizer. The results of this study shows that wastes fruits not be discarded into our environment because they contains fermentable sugar. These can be converted into bioethanol that can use as an alternative energy source.
